The entire MANOR and LORDSHIP of ROSSINGTON, an extensive FREEHOLD ESTATE, WOODS, and PLANTA TIONS, of nearly 3,000 acres, situate on the Great North Road, 156 miles from London to York and Edinburgh, and four miles south of the town of Doncaster. MR. TILBURN will SELL by AUCTION, at the Mansion-house in Doncaster, on THURSDAY, the 25th day of October, at. Two o'Clock, the ROSSINGTON ESTATE, comprehending the entire Manor, Lordship, and Parish of Rossington, the property of the Corporation of Doncaster, si tuate in a favourite part of the county of York, extending over nearly 3,000 acres of fertile arable (turnip and barley soil), meadow, pasture, and wood lands, within a ring fence, subdivided into 14 eligible farms by thriving quickset hedges. The whole of the rural village of Rossington (except the rectory) composed chiefly of modern farm-houses, home-steads, and agricultural buildings, all in good order and condition, well built and judiciously planned with great consideration to the occupancy and convenience of an old and highly respected tenantry, with comfortable cottages and pro lific gardens for an industrious and well-regulated labouring popu lation. Shooters'-hill, the residence of R. F. A. Freeman, Esq., delightfully situate, is part of the valuable domain, approached from its lodge on the London-road, and the mansion, though of unassuming pretension, is full of comfort, presenting a neat eleva tion, environed by tastefully displayed plantations, gardens, plea sure grounds, and park like enclosures, quite a gentleman's resi dence, replete with all requisite domestic offices; and complete farm buildings, for 400 acres of land attached, and let on building lease at a low rent, with the mansion, commanding extensive and varied scenery over the soft undulating and far spreading woods of Ros sington, (the town of Doncaster in view,) and closed by rising grounds and woods in the distant horizon. Rossington Grange, secluded by sheltering woods, and watered by the Thorne Rivulet. On the westerly side of the estate is a highly respectable farm residence, with capital homestead, buildings, an d prem i ses for 300 acres of land, forming altogether one of the most valuable farms of the neighbourhood. The Inn, called the Corporation Arms, but more generally known by the appellation of Rossington-bridge, with its excellent accommodation, stabling for 100 horses, and spacious farmstead and lands, is admirably situate by the high London road on the northern boundary, and has attained, under the present management, that well-merited reputation which its sporting and agricultural friends arc on all occasions anxious to proclaim. The luxuriant woods and thriving plantations, pro verbial for their neat and healthy appearance, and the theme of general praise, contain nearly 300 acres, yielding a very considerable annual income, including the Hunster, Holms' Carr, and Parks' Woods, of fine grown oak timber, which, with the other covers upon the estate, and the approximating strictly preserved grounds of J. Walbanke Childers, Esq., M.P., George Greaves, Esq., and others, and parts of the Nottinghamshire possessions of his Grace the Duke of Newcastle, afford covert and plain shooting equal to any in the kingdom. The vicinity of Doncaster has been justly celebrated for its numerous seats of the nobility and gentry and fashionable society. The fox-hunting excellent, the Badsworth and Scarborough kennels close at hand, and the Fitzwilliam and Bramham Hunts within distance. The Manor of Rossington, with the rights, royalties, and immunities thereunto appe rtaining, is co extensive with the lordship, and held by the Corporation of Don caster, by Royal grant from Henry VII. Both are of freehold tenure ; the land-tax is redeemed, and the tithes commuted to 614/. per annum. The present rental of the farms upon the estate, with the woods in hand, is estimated at 3,2001. per annum. It would be vain to attempt to describe all the advantages which this beautiful domain Possesses. It must be seen to be full} , appreciated, and it may in trut'h be said to be one of the most compact and de sirable estates in the county, and a capital and substantial landed investment. The advowson, or perpetual right of presentation to the Rectory of Rossington, of the annual value of upwards of 7001., is in the gift of the Corporation, and will be sold subsequently under the direction of her Majesty's Ecclesiastical Commissioners. Descriptive particulars and plans are preparing, and may shortly be had at the news-rooms of York, Leeds, Hull, Sheffield, Man chester, Birmingham, Liverpool, Glasgow, and Edinburgh ; the public libraries of Brighton, Cheltenham, and Bath • at the Auc tion Mart • at Garraway'z ; and of Messr s .

There were not less than 45 claimants. These rewards are given every three years. On Saturday morning, at an early hour, the lighter men and other persons of Paradise-row, Chelsea, were alarmed by hearing cries of " Help, help, we are sinking I" proceeding apparently, from the middle of the river. The wind was at the time blowing very hard, and the river wa3 exceedingly rough ; nevertheless Henry Gaylrd and Thomas Cole, two lightermen, put off in a boat, and after having gone two-thirds of the width of the river, they found four men in the river, clinging to some loose planks. They were immediately picked up (two of them apparently in a dying state) and conveyed with all haste back to the wharf, where thoy were put to bed, and the utmost attention paid to them. In the course of a few hours they recovered, and stated that they were coming up the river in one of the Corporation barges laden with iron ore, and had arrived oppos►te Chelsea, when the barge suddenly shipped a quantity of water and went down, and but for some planks on board they must all have perished. As it was they were full twenty minutes in water before assistance was afforded them. The barge still remains under water. On Saturday morning, at half-past six o'clock, a waterman, named Joseph Anthony, discovered in the river, opposite the Penitentiary, a human body, imbedded in the mud, which proved to be the remains of Anne Bourke alias Jacobs, who last week was charged at the Queen-square Po lice Office with having obtained, under false pretences, a small quantity cf tea, sugar, butter, and candles, from Mr. Fisher, a tradesman, residing in St. Ann street, Westminster. Upon her examination at the Police Office the case could not be clearly proved, and Mr. Burrell the Sitting Magistrate, or dered her to be discharged. She thanked him, but when outside the office said that the only relief from her miseries would be self-destruction. She had been living with a man, named Bourke, but was then entirely destitute. She was ob served two evenings afterwards wandering on the banks of the river, apparently in a distracted state. A man named Gucneau and his wife, condemned to death in August last for arson, by the Court of Assizes at Dijon, were executed on the 13th inst. in that town. The woman was first brought to the scaffold, and her head was se vered from her body at a single stroke, but the operation upon the man was so badly performed that it was not completed till the axe had been let fall several times. This is the second case in which the guillotine has failed to accomplish its hor rible work within the last few weeks ; the other instance hav ing occurred, as our readers may remember, at Draguignan. On Wednesday the Newark and Rugby Railway coach was driven by a new whip, who, net knowing the road, drove the coach to Molton, sixteen miles out of the way. Post.horses were put to the coach at Cheetham Inn, and all despatch was used to reach Rugby, but it did not arrive until the train had started, greatly to the annoyance of the passengers, amongst whom was Lord W. Bentinck.—Lin coin Chronicle. Yesterday afternoon, between one and two o'clock, a most serious accident occurred in Oxford-square, Bayswa ter. The particulars, as far as could be ascertained, are as follow :—A number of workmen, in the employ of Mr. Pons ford, builder, of South Wharf-road, Paddington, h ave b een • s o me time engaged at some buildings in the above square, and they were rapidly approaching to completion. The buildings are very high, and each house was to be surmounted by a very heavy stone cornice. The cornices had been raised, ar.d placed in their proper positions, and every part of the work appeared to be of great stability. Yesterday several men were employed in chipping away a portion of the brick work on which the cornices rest, for the purpose of placing a composition base along the whole front of the building under neath. They had proceeded until the above hour, when an un usual noise was heard, and before any inquiry could be made as to the cause, the w hole of the cornices of two houses at the north-cast corner fell on to the scaffold with a tremen dous crash, breaking away the only support of the men who were at work beneath. The poor men were precipitated to the ground, heavy blocks of stone, planks, and other substances falling upon them. The confusion for some time was so great that no assistance could be rendered. At length a great quan tity of the fallen materials was removed, and the poor sufferers, who were dreadfully mutilated, were extricated, and conveyed to the hospitals. Six of them were sent to St. George's Hos pital, where two of them were in such a dangerous state that they were not expected to survive many hours. One was sent to Middlesex Hospital, and a report was very general that he had died there, but this report, we believe, requires confirmation. Several of them are married men, and have large families. At a meeting of Magistrates at the Somerset Quarter Sessions, on Monday, after the election of a Governor for the Ilchester Gaol, Mr. Scott, the successful candidate, was called before the Court, and informed that he must only consider his appointment as temporary, it being their intention to abolish Ilchester Gaol.— Taunton Courier.

" Few men connected with the complicated departments of sur gery are deserving of more grateful mention that Mr. Van Butchell, whose unwearied dedication to the cure of those most painful of all diseases, which this book treats of, has resulted in a continued course of success in cases of the most hopeless and forbidding na ture. * 4 We find nearly every page recording some astonishing lure in patients whose sufferings had been for many years' duration, and most excruciating in their nature. The warmth of expression with which the gratitude of some of the restored is couched must be truly gratifying to the feelings and highly credit able to the skill and judgment of Mr. Van Butchell."—Weekly True Sun, July 15, 1838.

This superb steam vessel took her departure from this port at one P.M. to day for New York. Every berth was full, and among the pas• sengers it was stated was Lord Lennox, with despatches rela tive to Lord Durham's resignation. The weather being beautifully fine, thousands of spectators crowded the pier heads. In steaming down the Mersey, it appeared to those on shore that she lurched very much over to starboard; the lower portion of the paddle boxes were completely under water. Salutes were fired and replied to, and she rounded the Rock Fort at 20 minutes past one. The following is the list of cabin passengers :—Rev. J. Machin, family, and servants ; Mr. E. Jones, Mr. Wm.

On Sa turday, about the middle of the day, Miss Shinley wen t out to take a wa lk on t h e W es t ern Cliff'; not returning at dinner time her friends were alarmed, and Mrs. Goullett first went out to meet her; not finding her, persons were despatched in all directions to seek for her, but without avail. Late in the afternoon a young gentleman discovered the half of a footstep —the heel only, so close to the edge of the cliff that he thought a person could not have advanced so far without going eve? the cliff, which is between 200 and 300 feet high. He went to the edge and looked down ; at about fifty or sixty feet be low him he saw a bonnet hanging to a bush. Ho mentioned it to a Mr. Webber, who was passing, who went home for a hook and line, which he let down and pulled up the bonnet, which was at once identified by Mrs. Goullett. Persons were then despatched to examine the cliff from above and be low, but no trace of Miss Shinley was to be seen. Late in the evenin g , being satisfied she must be near the spot, a man of the name of John Teed was let down over the face of the cliff by a rope, with a candle and lantern, and in a fissure or gully of the cliff below him he heard a groan. He was lowered to the spot, and there he found the unfortunate lady standing up right, with her arms crossed, her feet and thighs jammed, at it were, in the narrow crevice, and she herself still alive. The man then raised her up by main force, and lowered her to the beach, having first of all fastened a rope round her. She was here received by the people below, and under the direction of Mr. Vowel], surgeon, who was in attendance, conveyed to Mrs. Goulett's house. She lingered in a state of insensibility till Monday morning, when she died, so that no clue could be obtained as to the cause of the melancholy catastrophe. It was a particu • larly squally day, and it is supposed that her bon net having been blown over the cliff, she approached to look after it, and thus fell over. Although she had fallen 100 feet there was not a single fracture of a limb, the symptoms under which she died being concussion • of the brain.

We understand that a considerable alarm has existed among the manufacturers, in consequence of its being supposed that the allowances of the duties of excise paid on soap used in certain manufactures and processes, as set forth in 3 and 4 William IV., cap. 16, and continued by 5 and 6 William IV cap. 15, had altogether ceased with the last session of Parliament.: We have, how ever, ascertained that the last-mentioned Act is still in force, and continues until the end of the next session ; and that ge neral instructions have been issued by the Excise to their col lectors to govern themselves accordingly. These drawbacks will, therefore, continue to be paid, as heretofore, until the close of the ensuing session. —Liverpool Mercury. MESNE PROCESS.—" The resignation of this efficient Law Lord's power to arrest" (writes a Correspondent) " is deeply and widely regretted in the City by holders of bills of exchange. Since the new bill came into operation I have had upwards of 30 bills returned, 30 acceptances dishonoured : a large portion of my capital is thereby absorbed and rendered unavailable for meeting my engagements. Unless an excep tion be introduced into the Bill when Parliament meets, in favour of the holders of bills of exchange, a crisis, full of peril, in our commercial affairs, seems to me more than probable. As regards small traders who accept for sums varying from 301. to 2301., the due honour of their acceptances will soon be the exception to the general practice of dishonour and call again to-morrow." gin poaiftlacacaepts: l . THE PRESIDENCY OF THE itcri SOCIETY. (From the Literary Gazette.) Last week's Literary Gazette contained a list -of tists: Presidents of the Royal Society since its foundation ; thas following remarks are submitted as a sequel:.- Many erro neous statements have been lately put forth Withrespea to. the expense and state attendant upon the proikii nified discharge of the office of its President. To that large and enlightened class of persons who know the facts of the case, those statements signify nothing—they only ex cite a smile ; indeed the incorrect manner in which many of the distinguished names, mixed up in the obnoxious ar ticles in question, are spell, is quite sufficient to show that the authors know as little of the matter as they do of science or of scientific people. We need not go back to. the days when Newton filled the chair of the Royal Society, but date these remarks from the Presidency of Sir Joseph Banks. The Society meets, vith a short vacation at Easter and another at Christmas, every Thursday evening, from the middle of November till towards the end of June ; the expense to each member is one shilling per meeting. When Sir Joseph Banks was President, he gave frequent conversazioni in his house (now occupied by the Linnwan Society), in ane of the corners of Soho-square ; these conversazioni were attended by hundreds of scientific and literary persons ; Sir Joseph, ardently attached to science, and to suit his own taste, rallied around him every traveller and person of distinction in England ; for it is a well-known fact that no collector ever left these shores without having a carte blanche from him to purchase the rarest specimens in na tural history that could be found. As a proof of his suc cessful labours, we refer with national pride to the Her barium of the British Museum, and to Robert Brown, A man distinguished by more scientific honours than perhap% any other British subject. What were the expenses of Sir Joseph's many and well-attended meetings? A few dozen cups of tea and coffee, and slices of bread and butter, were the viands ! The President and Council immediately before each meeting may dine together at the Crown and Anchor, in the Strand ; it is a small dinner, a bit of fish, chicken, chat, and two or three glasses of wine ; the charge for which is about five shillings per head, paid by each person who dines. Sir H. Davy, though rich, gave no conversa zioni at all, nor was his presidency less popular on that ac count. When Davies Gilbert was president, that kind hearted and accomplished man, though also very rich, had no town house ; for years he lodged in a small first floor shove Assereti's toy-ship in Bridge-street, Westminster. Having no town house, as has been stated, Mr. Gilbert in vited the Fellows and a friend or two to take breakfast with him on the Thursday mornings, during the Session, at the Thatched-house Tavern, St. James's ; the breakfast was simple to a degree—" a raddish and an egg," we had al most said ; it was, in short, the usual breakfast of plain people, a few water tresses being the chief luxury. Hi s Royal Highness th e D u k e of Sussex, who succeeded Mr. Gilbert in the chair, gave a serious of conver zationi at Kensington Palace ; these were nume rously and magnificently attended ; within the noble building there was scope and verge enough for all corners. The expenses of these meetings,-and of the more restricted dinner parties which preceded them, together with about 451. a session for tea and coffee in the li brary at Somerset-house, were always paid from the Duke's own pockat—at most of the other scientific societies the latter item is usually paid by the members generally. His Royal Highness will leave the chair with the respect and affection of every Fellow of the Society ; not merely for his urbanity and great kindness of heart, but also for the substantial good he has rendered to the Royal Society. Warmly attached to his brother, his late Majesty, William I V., his Royal Highness was the means of successfully urging the claims of the Society, andobtaining from that liberal Mo narch a sum of moneyto defray the annual expense of the two royal gold medals of 501. each, which had been granted by George IV., but whose illness, and perhaps other causes to which we may not allude, had prevented the investment of a fund to provide for the medals ; and owing to that omission tl:e Royal Society for a time had well nigh incurred the ridi cule of our scientific neighbours abroad, to some of whom— De Candolle, Berzelius, Mitschterlitch, and others, medals were voted, morocco leather cases supposed to contain which, were, on the mornings of sundry anniversaries, handed over to the proxies of the distinguished foreigners with all doe form. There are several persons who will remember the annoyance which such a course caused to a high-minded man, whose name we purposely avoid mentioning, and ho had to dispense the honours. " I don't like," he ex claimed, " this beggarly account of empty boxes." The Duke of S ussex , h owever, was t h e honoured means of put ting all straight ; a sufficient sum was invested, a die was sunk, the medals were immediately struck, and forwarded to those to whom they had been voted years before. We could mention many more acts of good done by his Royal Highness to the Society, but it might savour of flattery, and we therefore abstain. BISHOP PHILPOTTS AND THE REV. Mg. INAD.—The course adopted by the meek and forgiving pre late of this diocese to vindicate his offended dignity, and the supremacy of his high office, over the prostrate Mr. Head, has excited but one feeling of mingled disgust and pity—disgust for the unvarnished hypocrisy which pervades the spiritual address, and pity for the mind that could take such satis faction as the Bishop drew from the humiliation of a fallen brother. Mr. Head had, unfortunately for himself, aban doned any claim which he might have had on the sympa thies of the public, by the readiness with which he threw himself upon the mercy of his spiritual father; but we he her there are many circumstances of a palliating nature, which, if they would not wholly justify, would go far to excuse the Rev. Gentleman for the course which he had adopted. But without e n t er i ng i nto any matters of a private nature respecting Mr. Head, we can state that it has come to our knowledge that the clergy generally view the pro ceeding, on the part of the Bishop, not only as unnecessa rily harsh in itself, but unjustifiable as to the mode adopted. They say that for clerical offences the proper place for re buke is at the visitation, when the Bishop assembles his clergy together, and not at a confirmation, when the laity rre present to witness the humiliation of a member of that Church, which the public should be taught to regard with eneration and respect—and which their common interest demands. We confess, however, that we have not much mpathy with them, for no class of men have exhibited greater servility than the clergy of this diocese have to their spiritual head—there are some honourable exceptions of a few independent men, who have manfully stood up in defence of their common rights—but if not crushed in the at tempt, they have certainly not owed their safety to any coun tenance from their brethren.— Western Tinies. PROTESTANT POPERY.—There is a schism in the - --- Established Church. One party proceeds on the true Pro testant principle of a free interpretation of the Scriptures and private judgment ; another has lately started up, with him of Exeter at its bead, and the Doctors of Oxford and its ex pectants for disciples. These latter teachers are bringing back all the old Popish notions of the Divine right of Bishops, ab solution for sin, Apostolical ordination (where did they get it themselves ?) In fine, if this party succeed (and to judge by the Bishop of Llandafrs speech in Merthyr church the other day, it is likely to do so), the Church of England will become Popish in every thing else but the express acknowledgement of him of Rome; so that we are to have a She-Pope, and the Romanists a He-one. In other words—our National Church it o become a copy of the Russian- Greek Church. Spirits of Latimer, Ridley, Farrer, Hooper, could you anticipate this apostacy when you gave your bodies to be burned ? Tillotson, S,illingfleet, Barrow, Seeker, is this the Protestantism 'you preached 7—Silurian. D UNDEE.-TB, A DE.--0 az' flax, yarn, and linen markets continue as last noted, without much doing in any of these articles, though there is rather more demand fur yarns, but certainly not any advance. The stocks of linen are certainly not increasing, and common Osnaburghs are scarce, having been mostly picked up. There has not been the usual demand for the better qualities of Osnaburghs about this time—for what are called the " estate orders ;" the putting an end to the negro apprenticeships having done away with this demand, as the negroes, being their own masters, can supply themselves where they choose, and the planters, of course, do not order for them, and will not until they come to an arrangement about wages.—Dundee Courier. STORM AND WRECKS.—The storm at the close of last week, which has been productive of so many disas ters both in Scotland and England, has been the cause of some damage in our neighbourhood. We detail the loss of five vessels on our coast; on land there are also severe losses. The corn which was uncut has had a great part of its produce wasted, while in some places the heads have been cropped from the straw. In a field near to the beach, the crop which stood in stooks was carried wholly into the sea. Although this week we have not had such winds, yet on the whole it has been unfavourable for the conclusion of the harvest, which with us might be accomplished by a week of dry weather.-- Berwick Advertiser. ACCIDENT ON THE LIVERPOOL AND MAN CHESTER RAILWAY.—On Thursday evening last, between the hours of eight and nine, as a heavily- laden luggage tr ain was proceeding from Liverpool towards Alanchester the engine was thrown off the line, at the Newton junction, in conse quence of the man, whose duty it was to shift the rails after the Birmingham train has passed, neglecting to do so. The result of this carelessness was calamitous in the extreme, a poor fellow, named Hannon, being killed on the spot, and the " breakman" so dreadfully injured that his life is despaired of. The escape of the engineer and fireman was miraculous. Hannon was riding in a carriage with a number of pigs in trusted to his care, 30 or 40 of them also being killed. Had it been a passengers' train, the mind cannot conceive the hor rible consequences of this culpable piece of neglect, and, as it is, the loss sustained by the Company must prove very great, as goods of every description are crushed, intermixed, and utterly ruined. placesm a ieso NBIRMINGHAMMiss on Agnesda Monday Pearsallßt h e A i railroad andß o A Mrs.D fr . o-in L.
